ABSTRACT:
A system and method providing status information about a task being processed on a computer system is described. The task comprises an operation that blocks user activity, such as a modal task. Status information about the task is obtained during processing of the task on an event thread of a computer system. A status display is generated based upon this status information. The task yields time on the event thread, enabling the status information to be displayed in the user interface of the computer system.
